Abstract

L'invention porte sur un système de codage par couleurs permettant d'inscrire une information codée sur des produits ainsi que sur d'autres substrats. C'est une imprimante couleur (Figure 2, N° 40) qui imprime le code couleur en couleurs à intensité unique et sous des formes prédéfinies (Figure 1, N° 12-27) juxtaposées séquentiellement. Le code, qui est prédéfini, peut être lu par un dispositif vidéo (Figure 2, N° 42) et décodé par ordinateur. Cette invention permet de disposer d'une information codée très condensée, occupant un espace réduit et pouvant être lue et décodée facilement ainsi qu'à moindre coût.
